1] from 0.1mg to 9mg
depends on each person
try small and increase to see what best suits for you

2]no, or negligeable GH increase

3] no, you can take some every nights for months

I normally take it when I am on cycle. I usually take 3-6mg each night which
does the trick for me.

Thanks foe the quick responses. I have 3 mg tabs so i think i will start out with 3 mg's tonight and see how that goes. Ill let you guys know tomorrow how it worked out.

What other benefits does this stuff have besides a sleep aid?

Actually it works best if you swallow those pills

The sublingual tabs are great, pop 3-4 and ZZZZZZ all night long.

5-10MG NIGHT NIGHT

Update on this!! I have been using 9mg's per night. I have been sleeping really well, and feel great in the morning. Kinda makes e feel like i took a xanax before bed which isnt a bad thing! I have been having a lot of dreams at night. No nightmares though
Definentlly works!!! Thanks to all for your suggestions!

However have you tried with lower dosage ?

You gotta try lower doses...this is like caffeine. If you are not used to caffeine, a little bit will do the trick. The same with this. After some time your body can get used to it. In that case you have to up the dose a litle bit or stop using it for some days if you are sleeping well. That's what I do. There are days that for some reason I sleep more than usual and that next night I take just 1 mg to fall asleep soon. If everything's normal, I don't use it. try to coordinate your body to a natural clock for sleep. We are carbon units fully compatible with earth's system.

I agree with detroitbodybuilders. 5-10mg's per night are fine. But you may need 10 mg's one night and 5 the next, just because 10 mg's does the trick, doesn't mean you always need that much.

I have been taking Melatonin for five years and I switch it up all the time.

Have you guys also tried kava-kava ?

It works great for relaxing and getting asleep

 

[season7445]

Ok ill try this out. Im just going to see how the 3mgs works tonight. If it doesnt ill take another. See how that goes instead of just takig a certain ammount. Thanks again.

Yeah I find anytime I bump the dose after taking a set dose for a few weeks, the effects come bacl. Kind of like caffeine or even more so like Ephedrine.

I had mentioned earlier that i read somewhere that melatonin increases the release of growth hormone. I dont know how reliable this info is but ill post it and see if any one can give the board some insight on this.

Excerpt from Human Muscle & Performance Issue # 5 (This is the free mag at smoothie king with nothing but VPX ads in it!)

pg # 43
Substances that enhance the function of GHRH
Hormones:
Melatonin (10 mg/D) enhances the ability of GHRH to stimulate the release of hGH from the pituitary gland.

If anyone has any knowledge on this please respond!!

3mg's does the trick for me. Doesn't make me sleep. When I do sleep though it is like I slept for days. I feel great the next day. A little groggy right of the bat though.
I like sublingual's too. They worked best for me!
Good Luck

Kava-kava is somewhat liver toxic. I cannot take it at all.

Melatonin works but it is subtle. Not like a sleep pill.

 

[anthrax]

Season7445, the melatonin increasing hGH is BS

The increase is real but for such a short time that the effect on your organism is negligeable

NO !!!!!

Kava-kava is not liver toxic if you buy the real thing

the case of liver toxicity were du to the use of low quality stuff which contain toxic impurities
